Trees of Life
Ann Ginsburgh Hofkin

GALLERY II

May 24- June 17, 2012

Trees of Life features photographs of selected trees that have inspired Ginsburgh Hofkin because of their quality of mystery, sense of grace, or depiction of the struggle between permanence and the fleeting moment. A sense of the primordial is articulated through the use of black and white infrared materials. These photographs, with their emphasis on the contrast between highlight and shadow, illustrate the tension between stability and struggle. The delicate balance depicted in these images serves as a metaphor for things unseen but nonetheless intuited, mirroring the fragility of life.
